Mexican actress Karyme Lozano was crowned Queen of the San Francisco LGBT Pride Parade in 2008. So I was shocked to hear that she has joined the Latino Partnership for Conservative Principles in a new initiative benefiting radically conservative Carly Fiorina, who is running for pro-LGBT Senator Barbara Boxer’s U.S. Senate seat. At a press conference this week hosted at the Millennium Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles, the Washington-DC-based conservative Latino group announced the $1 million-dollar “Tus valores” (“Your Values”) campaign to bring their toxic agenda to California by helping elect anti-equality candidates like Fiorina.
While it is troubling to see Karyme Lozano blatantly disregard the LGBT community’s warm embrace, it is even more disturbing to see her align herself with a group that disingenuously propagates the Latino values of familia y tradición as rigid conservative convictions. Furthermore, to add insult to injury, it seems that Lozano, who serves on the advisory board of the misguided Latino conservative group alongside with fellow actor Eduardo Verastegui, who in 2008 campaigned against marriage equality, has taken bold steps to joining the hate mongering anti-marriage groups.
